- |||||||||| Journal: Pyrazole, Pyrazoline, and Fused Pyrazole Derivatives: New Horizons in EGFR-Targeted Anticancer Agents. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 16, 2024
Several drugs include the pyrazole scaffold, such as ramifenazone, ibipinabant, antipyrine, and axitinib, etc. They have been extensively studied by the scientific community and are said to have a wide range of biological activity, especially anticancer agents targeting EGFR...Several anti-EGFR drugs are thriving, notably dacomitinib, afatinib, erlotinib, gefitinib, and osimertinib...The current review outlines the investigation of advancements towards anti- EGFR via pyrazole, pyrazoline, and fused pyrazole-based compounds and represents inclusive data on pyrazole-based marketed drugs as well as therapeutic candidates undergoing preclinical and clinical development. We have also summarised structure-activity relationship (SAR), mechanistic studies to afford ideas for the design and development of new anti-EGFR derivatives.

A selective and sensitive liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated for simultaneous quantitation of a cassette of 8 drugs, including docetaxel, erlotinib, loperamide, riluzole, vemurafenib, verapamil, elacridar and tariquidar. Similarly, the precision for all compounds at three different concentration levels ranged below 15

Journal: An Innovative Telomere-associated Prognosis Model in AML: Predicting Immune Infiltration and Treatment Responsiveness. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 7, 2024 This innovative TRG scoring model demonstrates considerable predictive value for AML patient prognosis, offering valuable insights for optimizing treatment strategies and personalized medicine approaches. The identified TRGs and associated scoring models could aid in risk stratification and guide tailored therapeutic interventions in AML patients.

Journal: Design and Synthesis of Dual Galectin-3 and EGFR Inhibitors Against Liver Fibrosis. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 6, 2024 There is currently only one FDA-approved drug (Resmetirom) in the market to combat liver fibrosis...Here, EGFR inhibitor erlotinib was used in a series of designed galectin-3 inhibitors after hybridization with the pharmacophore structure in reported galectin-3 inhibitors to impede hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) activation by a typical method of click chemistry...Further docking studies were performed to clarify the possible binding mode of compound 29 with galectin-3 and EGFR. Taken together, these results suggested that compound 29 could be a potential dual galectin-3 and EGFR inhibitor as leading compound for anti-liver fibrosis new drug development.

Differential Efficacy of Panitumumab in Preclinical Models of Renal Medullary Carcinoma and Fumarate Hydratase-Deficient Renal Cell Carcinoma () - Nov 6, 2024 - Abstract #IKCS2024IKCS_113; The RMC PDX model was generated from a 28-year-old male with sickle cell trait who had previously received cisplatin plus paclitaxel followed by carboplatin plus paclitaxel...The FH-deficient PDX model was generated from a 24-year-old female with HLRCC (hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell carcinoma syndrome), who had been previously treated with first-line bevacizumab plus erlotinib with excellent response of her metastatic disease, which allowed subsequent cytoreductive nephrectomy of the left-sided primary mass from which the PDX model was derived...We observed disease control but not tumor regression with panitumumab in our FH-deficient RCC PDX model. Based on these data, panitumumab-based therapy is currently being prospectively investigated in a multi-center cohort of patients with treatment-refractory RMC.

Biomarker, Journal, Tumor mutational burden, IO biomarker: Explore the expression of mitochondria-related genes to construct prognostic risk model for ovarian cancer and validate it, so as to provide optimized treatment for ovarian cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 31, 2024 In terms of drug sensitivity, the high-risk group was more sensitive to vinblastine, Acetalax, VX-11e, and PD-0325901, while the low-risk group was more sensitive to Sabutoclax, SB-505124, cisplatin, and erlotinib. The prognostic risk model of ovarian cancer associated to mitochondrial genes built on the basis of public database better evaluated the prognosis of ovarian cancer patients and guided individual treatment.

Preclinical, Journal: Erlotinib regulates short-term memory, tau/A? pathology, and astrogliosis in mouse models of AD. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 22, 2024 Furthermore, erlotinib-treated 5xFAD mice exhibited significant downregulation of astrocyte activation, and treating PACs from 5xFAD mice with erlotinib markedly reduced cxcl10 (reactive astrocyte marker) and gbp2 (A1 astrocyte marker) mRNA levels and proinflammatory cytokine mRNA and protein levels. Taken together, our results suggest that erlotinib regulates tau/A?-induced AD pathology, cognitive function, and A?/tau-evoked astrogliosis and therefore could be a potent therapeutic drug for ameliorating AD symptoms.
